The youngsters realize that they are in trouble when the cops find out more about the incident. Police moved to the college to arrest them. However, they are kidnapped by the terrorists before the cops could lay their hands on them. Visal Sabhapathi (Bala), the leader of the N. S. G. Commando wing, is soon called in to look into the case and rescue the students.
